I love the Kennedy's...
No family has worked harder, or sacrificed more, to improve our country.

Shut the fuck up with the slams against them. This is primary politics - people make choices. If their choice isn't yours, it doesn't negate everything they've done.

Here's to JFK, RFK, Teddy, Caroline, Robert, Kathleen and all the rest.

:toast:

2. He has worked to divide the party. His losing campaign against Carter brought in the Reagan
revolution which has hurt the party for decades, while Teddy and his family continued to build their dynasty in MA

I saw it as soon as I posted it, but I didn't want the red badge of shame.

I hope you're having a good night, nonetheless! :toast:

11. Yep, gotta give it up for MonkeyFunk.
Begrudgingly, but if you can post this, maybe I can return the favor when the time comes.

Thanks.

12. Thank you, MonkeyFunk.
And it's not as if Massachusetts voters are the be all, say all, final voice on what America thinks of the Kennedys' endorsement.

A toast to the Kennedys, all of them, irregardless of spoken endorsements! :toast:

17. Yes indeedy
That family (All of it) has a work ethic for America I wish all people had. I especially think the world of Caroline. The dear girl has lost so much, but yet she keeps on truckin' with the grace and dignity her mother taught her to have.

18. Hey Monk, I hear what you are saying but why isn't the same said for the Clintons?
As a family, they appear to be doing a lot politically as well but I just keep hearing about some dynasty-ass thing with the Clintons and the Bushes. Why was it okay for the Kennedy's?

Just curious about your opinion on that.

19. Robert Kennedy, Jr. supported Hillary and
I will never forget Ted Kennedy helping to defeat Jimmy Carter. I will always thank Hillary for trying to get "We The People" Universal Healthcare, but she suffered a lot for it. Republican MSM hates her guts!

20. Same here
The Kennedys are all good Democrats. We are lucky to have them in the party.

Cheers to all the Kennedys!

I really appreciate their service to our country!
